Quicker Web Searches with Searchy

Searchy, a new experimental add-on for Firefox will allow you to do that in a very stylish and unique way. Once you get it installed, just hit Ctrl+Shift+K to bring up the Searchy search box, then type in what you are looking for. You will get the results in real time as you type.

Also, another neat tip is that you can use “@” before your search to just search the web site you are on at the time. If your not in love with the keyboard combo you must use to get it to search – that can easily be changed in the options.

It might not re-invent searching, however Searchy does give a pretty (and unique) new face to something we all do every single day. To learn more about the development of the extension, be sure to check out the Searchy’s official web site.
